This review is intended for FSX users who are thinking about making the jump to Xplane, XPLANE FANBOYS PLS STAY AWAYĪs a player who deeply enjoyed FSX this has been my experience so far: This is my review/comparison between FSXSE and XP11:
There is really too much to list about how different BUT YET somehow the same these 2 sims are, But since the release of X-Plane 11 and all the news stuff they have done to it, and are planning to do, I say if you truly love flight sims, you need BOTH!!
#Fsx acceleration vs fsx se free#
And support the store there!įSX has many great communities too, and I LOVE my FSX, I have spent thousands of hours (and a whole bunch of dollars) on it, but there is only so much you can do to FSX before it eventually shows it’s age.įlight in X-Plane just feels more realistic and looks pretty darn good with just a few free addons, FSX is a much simpler flight model and can be made to look amazing (if you are willing to drop the cash) (or you can donate) There is so much stuff you can easily do (and then undo) to X-Plane I have been downloading and trying stuff out ever since I bought it! X-Plane has a dedicated community of scenery and plugin (mods) makers that cheerfully offer the really cool stuff they make for free. My phone number is 07675 58999 NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN!!! Calls cost £29.53 per minute, excluding standard network rates. If you have any further specific queries, I'd be more than happy to help*! It's unbelievably realistic in X-Plane 11. I recently purchased the Jardesign A320 and the sound pack for £62 - and I'll never look back. However, I think X-Plane 11 provides a better base game than FSX, and this is what distinguishes it from its competitors. Because of this, spending $60 every 3-4 years for the next version of X-Plane may seem crazy, but you are supporting people who are doing a genuinely great job, as opposed to the staff at Microsoft.Īs you mentioned, there are lots of FSX mods, and a similar story applies to X-Plane 11. The lead developers work full-time on this flight sim from their own homes, but from what I know, FSX is just a game that gets few major updates nowadays. It is a significant step-up from X-Plane 10, with it's new fog and lighting engine, intuitive UI and ease of use. From my opinion, X-Plane is always going to be the future of flight simulation.
